For years, building interactive widgets in Python notebooks meant wrestling with toolchains, platform quirks, and a mountain of JavaScript machinery.

His idea was simple: give Python users just enough JavaScript to unlock the web’s interactivity, without dragging along the rest of the web ecosystem. That idea became anywidget, and it is quickly becoming the quiet connective tissue of modern interactive computing. Today we dig into how it works, why it has taken off, and how it might change the way we explore data.

Learn something every timeThis show is filled with great content and Michael is an engaging and gracious host! Every episode has wonderful conversation and I learn something I follow up on just about every time.
Finance - risk guyHey, I'm a finance and risk guy that is newer to Python, was using excel vba macros but once I saw the power and possibilities of Python, have been hooked ever since. Love the podcast, I think I am a wannabe developer, maybe some day, haha. Take it easy.
One of the most interesting topical Python podcastsThis podcast has been covering Python related topics for years and is well loved within in Python community, which helps to get the guests that write the software you are using (or do important things in the Python world). It’s well presented and has a consistent length, which is nice if you don’t enjoy multi hour podcasts. Every episode is single topic, make sure to check the back log to see which episodes interest you. For a more general overview also check out Michael's other podcasts Python Bytes, where he quickly covers what’s new around Python.
